So BS on honeymaid's story.
Barreling down a hill, engine off, no power steering, freaking out as that fence looms ahead, and you're desperately stabbing at the brake pedal? I'd give her a pass on not knowing that they were still working.

Now, I could say something like she was probably 5 feet tall, couldn't see over the wheel, was praying to the Virgin hanging from the rearview mirror, all while feeding the 3 screaming kids who were in the backseat unbuckled...

THEN we could put the blame on here
